Reversing - helppppppp

luv26t:
Hi Guys
Finally I am driving a proper truck - 4 days so far
Hey I reversed into a parking bay - Straight but over lines = Only took 10 mins !!!

I luv it - I feel like a proper trucker rather than driving my old 26t
Working nights - Gosh tired
Takes yonks to put the curtain straps on… and on and on…

MY REVERSING Needs work - I know people are different but approx how long before it kicks in - I feel like a right Plonker !!!

when i passed my test i had to put a trailer into a really tight gap beside another trailer, i done it in one shunt and it was spot on the warehouse doors when some bloke said and i quote, CHRIST I DONT KNOW HOW YOU BLOKES DO THAT, VERY IMPRESSIVE my reply was well its experience mate [not]LOL never been able to do it since and i have now been doing class1 for 23 yrs,2 to 4 weeks will see you getting the hang of it it will come naturally in the end

Well, I have to admit it took 4 shunts to reverse park a CAR trailer that I borrowed today. It was one of those silly little ones that you can’t actually see unless there is a taller load in it. Generally if it appeared in either mirror the blind guesswork was wrong and also far too late to correct…
So I’m just hoping that by the time I do class 1 I’m a bit better at this stuff!
